The ticket sales plus a raffle and merchandise sales raised more than £3,000. An online auction, which runs until September 18, also looks set to bring in more than £1,500.

Roy Stannard from the charity thanked all those who supported the event and said every penny raised would be used to help the homeless, vulnerable children and those who suffer domestic abuse in the city.
